Educational and entertaining play for kids, set in WW2. Very much in the style of the era - a sort of 'boys own' yarn. Contains two mild swearwords.

Synopsis

Like many boys during World War Two, Peter Smith is eager to do his part, and he loves the radio adventures of 'Secret Agent Scout' who helps keep Britain safe from invasion. Little does Peter know that the radio show is based on his own adventures and attitude - and he gets to meet someone very important.

One-act slice of life from a London pub during the Second World War. (Could be used as an educational piece, but contains some mild swearing and, being set in a pub, drinking.)

Synopsis

Bombs are falling on London again, but some local residents have opted to spend the evening in the pub, rather than the shelters. A look at the practicalities of wartime life in Britain from a local perspective.

With action jumping between time zones and crossing three generations, the play depicts people who are faced with huge events that are beyond their control. They must, however, continue the quest for survival in their more mundane lives. The three generations depicted in the play react in different ways to accomplish that goal.
